hello,
an observation with i2cgps and latest dev:
after upgrading from stable 2.2 to r1557 i always get standard 3 i2c errors.
these 3 errors have to do with the gps, because if i recompile with i2c disabled, i dont get them anymore.
Besides, when i downgrade to 2.2 i dont get any errors, so something has to do with the code in r1557.
Some info about my setup:
Latest EOSBandi's I2C-GPS code (I2C_GPS_NAV_v2.2Beta1-r62)
Multiwii dev_r1557
Crius_SE main board
Flytron I2C_GPS-v2 board with binary 1.9V firmware for MT3329
Vbat,Buzzer,Pilotlamp,LCD enabled

Not sure but maybe this will help: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3921
Re: standard 3 i2c erros with r1557 and i2c-gps
the patch mentioned by Copterrichie is really only related to the use of the sonar on the I2C_GPS. I also have seen the 3 errors, but as the errors don't accumulate past the initial startup then I discarded it as an issue - I assumed these errors are a timing issue between when MWC is ready and trying to access the I2C bus and when the I2C_GPS is ready and available. have you tried resetting the MWC without resetting I2C_GPS and seeing if you still get the counts. Will try this tonight.

Sorry for the delayed reply,
thanks but as justk1w1 says below, this is related to the use of the sonar, doesn't it?? Besides i dont know how to apply this patch to the main code.
i 've understand that it is not an issue, as it stays to 3 and happens only on the init period. Anyway i wrote this post just to make sure that i'm not the only one who came across this.
I will try the reset sequence you propose and will report back asaic. thanks!

Hi,
I also get, with a configuration using also i2c_gps_nav, 2 errors with MW 2.2.
Why 2 not 3 ? Are you using a sonar on i2c_gps_nav processor ?
